1. Is it permissible for a teacher to leave school with the principal's approval if there are no classes or assignments? 2. What is the legitimate Shar'i (Islamic legal) control over the direct manager's authority in demanding that subordinates record incorrect attendance to improve the school's reputation? 3. Is it permissible to sign in for attendance and then leave for the entire day with the principal's approval to avoid having an absence recorded? 4. Is it permissible to review questions similar to the exam and leave the rest of the curriculum in the last few weeks to increase the students' success rate? 5. Is it permissible to be lenient in exam questions due to weak teaching to match the students' level?
A teacher is a private employee, obligated to be present throughout the designated working hours, regardless of whether there is work to be done or not. It is forbidden for them to be absent or leave early, except in cases of extreme necessity with the permission of the responsible authority. It is also forbidden to falsify attendance times or for the teacher to hint at exam questions to students. Exams must be a true measure of the students' level.
